    These two ladies made their costumes as well


    When we were outside, it was then that we met up with Trefor, who had been given a flag to fly and go up front with others in the parade .. we met up after though

    These guys n gals were great ..


    Approaching the end .. The National Museum of Wales. Its undergoing a big clean up and the girls in the pic are waving at all the building contractors who are leaning over the scaffolding waving to everyone


    The rally which lasted about 20 mins .. we all finished by singing The Welsh National Anthem and were then asked to ask 3 people over the next year to come on the march again and help it grow year by year. So all you X Markers who could and would like to make it, will be VERY WELCOME to come Wales and join us.


    Then we all met up with Trefor again and went to one of the wetherspoons pubs for some more well earned beer


    Anyhow, I hope between Trefor and myself we have been able to portray a little more about our small homeland ..
